NCBA Donates First Batch of Water Tanks to Boost Clean Water Access Across Nyanza

NCBA has reaffirmed its commitment to sustainable community development with the donation of the first tranche of twenty-four (5,000) litre water storage tanks to the Lake Victoria South Water Works Development Agency (LVSWWDA), supporting improved access to clean and reliable water across the Nyanza region.

The tanks will be distributed to schools, markets, and social and faith-based institutions across 8 counties where the agency operates. The beneficiaries have long struggled with limited access to clean water and a reliable supply, a challenge NCBA has come in to address through the donation.

Speaking during the handover ceremony, NCBA Group Director Corporate & Investment Banking, Tirus Mwithiga, said, “We are deepening our presence in the region by creating real value for communities through enhanced water storage capacity for schools, markets, and social institutions. This initiative addresses a fundamental need while laying the foundation for long-term regional development. This is how NCBA changes the story—through action that improves lives today and supports growth for generations to come. Our partnership with Lake Victoria South Water Works Development Agency reflects a shared vision for sustainability, strengthening the foundation for long-term regional development. It’s a program that will continue for years, showing NCBA’s commitment to people and the environment we operate in.”

The NCBA Change the Story initiative seeks to address some of Kenya’s most pressing challenges by committing financial resources annually to support our communities, enabling progress in areas that matter, including environmental sustainability, financial empowerment, education, tree planting, and reducing environmental degradation. Through initiatives like the water tanks donation, NCBA demonstrates that meaningful impact is achieved not by intention but by consistent, tangible action.

“We are deeply grateful to NCBA for this generous contribution of water tanks. The first 24 of 200 water tanks will serve schools, hospitals, market centers, and community groups across the Lake Victoria South region.

This is the foundation of a long-term partnership built on sustainability that will enhance water accessibility for both underserved and deserving communities. By working hand in hand, we will extend our efforts to the next level and deliver on our mandate to create lasting impact,” said Jackline Kemunto, CEO of Lake Victoria South Water Works Development Agency.

By contributing to this initiative, NCBA reinforces its strategy of building strong ties between the public and private sector partnerships. This partnership is poised to bolster NCBA’s Corporate Banking presence in the Western region.
